The Hulu political thriller \u201cParadise\u201d<\/a> has been renewed for a second season, which is expected to premiere sometime in 2026. But what does Hulu\u2019s merger with Disney+ mean for the future of the show?<\/p>\n Disney took full ownership of Hulu in July after buying Comcast\u2019s remaining stake. You can already purchase a Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN bundle, but there\u2019s also still a standalone Hulu app \u2014 for now.<\/p>\n The Hulu app is set to be shut down<\/a> sometime in 2026, but original shows like \u201cParadise\u201d will still be available<\/b> on the integrated Disney+ and Hulu platform. Customers will also still be able to purchase a standalone Hulu subscription or a standalone Disney+ subscription if they aren\u2019t interested in access to both streaming platforms\u2019 libraries.<\/p>\n Even before the Hulu app is phased out<\/a>, Disney+ users will begin to see a Hulu tab, as well as a \u201cFor You\u201d tab that includes recommendations for Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN. A Disney+ and Hulu bundle is not required to see the Hulu tab and browse through its content.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s to give people a bit of a taste as to what the breadth of our catalog offers, and encourages you to upsell into a bundle that makes sense for you,\u201d Jason Wong, Disney\u2019s Senior Vice President of Product Management, told Fast Company<\/a> this month.<\/p>\n READ MORE: <\/b>The disturbing true story behind Hulu\u2019s \u2018Murdaugh: Death in the Family\u2019<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n While the change might be confusing or frustrating for some Hulu users, Wong said the goal is for subscribers to be able to easily find what they want on the integrated app. <\/p>\n \u201cIf, ultimately, our products make it hard for someone who just loves Hulu to get to Hulu content, we\u2019ve failed,\u201d he said. \u201cOur strategy is to build up the Disney+ application and make it a great place for both Disney+ and Hulu users.\u201d<\/p>\n Disney CEO Bob Iger and CFO Hugh Johnston have also stated that the integrated Disney+ and Hulu app will provide \u201ctremendous choice, convenience, quality, and enhanced personalization\u201d for users, per Variety<\/a>.<\/p>\n Currently, the Disney+ and Hulu bundle<\/a> costs $10.99 a month.
